Fox News just said that the pilots who scrambled yesterday and today, and shot down the bogies in Alaska and Canada, said that the bogies were NOT balloons.

Theremin....

Did you know guitar virtuoso Joe Bonamassa plays the theremin on a few songs?

That show has always had a different schedule than most talk shows. They play long drawn out music at the top and bottom of every hour wasting lots of time, then go with no other break, unlike most shows that break around the 21 minute mark until they get all the way to the 30 minute mark.

I would think that the balloon vehicle has very limited power resources for things like ECM.

Good point. But the unit is not going to live very long anyway once it goes active. It can stay passive on low power until it detects a radar lock, then fire up the power to emitters and detectors and see how long it lives.

Communications would be the priority.

A really good point as well. The comm system probably has a separate power supply with a much longer run time. It needs to report back detector results to a remote station right up to the last millisecond of life.

I would expect to find a directional laser or maser on board for final communications to minimize detection of the transmissions and interference with their ECM. That might be giving their engineers too much credit. But Chinese engineers are pretty smart.

I would love to see the crashed hardware.

Wouldn’t it be ultra-kool if we got all trigger-happy, and hyper-sensitive, and shot down an ACTUAL E.T. frikkin interstellar space-frigging-ship, and eight or ten all pissed off little green guys got out of the wreck, and demanded to be taken to our leader?

...and just who the HELL would that be?

It had a major problem dealing with a Sidewinder, though.

If that last part was a misprint, it was a good one.

Is this the price Americans will have to pay for the Biden’s sleeping with the enemy?

No visible evidence of propulsion is consistent with lighter than air craft aka balloons. However, the Jetoptra concept is interesting:

Interesting video after you mute the annoying music.
